Abstract:
A model of the optimal multilevel organization is described. Its originality is determined by its multilevel character, the optimal hierarchy structure being the internal parameter examined together with the “classical” organization theory parameters, such as technology, number of agents and principals, their types and effort levels, stimulation mechanisms. The key assumption is the additivity of principal' contributions to the total profit of the organization. A particular case of the model with the logarithmic profit function is examined in detail.
